5.00Great tour which gave us a glimpse into rural Netherlands. Very nice visit to dairy farm that makes cheese. Amazing automated milking system. Cheese making and tasting venue was excellent. Our driver, Ahmed, was very knowledgeable, friendly and helpful. Cute visit to quaint Volendam village and windmill demonstration site.
